St Louis Trip

Lil Boo and I took at trip to The Lou to see our dear friends the Bradleys. We went up on Sunday and came back on Wednesday. The last time we saw each other was when the little guys were 3 months old. My how they have changed!! Thanks to the whole family for opening your home to us and rearranging sleeping arrangements, etc. to accommodate us. We had a great time!

The boys all playing with trains at the Bradley house.

We had a picnic at a local park and then played on the playground.

Tubby Time!


We went to this very cool train place where they have all sorts of train tables for the kiddos to play with. This was a rare picture of Boo actually at the table. He mostly just wanted to walk around!
I know the day will come when I won't be able to pull him away from a train table!


More trainy fun!

"Hi Gracie!"

A beautiful spring day!
Great for barefootin!

J was such a delight to be around! He's such a happy boy and a great helper!
Here he is showing Boo how to play with big trucks!
M was taking an awesome afternoon nap and missed out on these pics.

All in all, Boo did pretty good on the trip. He traveled well the first day and was great for a day and a half. After that, I think it was a little much for him. He had a minor meltdown during every awake time after that second night. And on the way home...well, he showed off big at Cracker Barrel. He refused to eat ANYTHING!! And as you can see, he never skips a meal. I couldn't believe it. He just cried and cried. Oh brother! I was so upset by his fit. But, we made it.
Thanks again Bradleys! We had an awesome time!

Thanks for such a special visit and for posting pics. We loved spending time with you and little G. You all mean a lot to us. It was fun to see the boys playing so well together- they are getting so grown up!
